Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt called time on their marriage this September, after 12 years of partnership and 2 years of marriage.

This was a summer love, and so, was short-lived. Though the stars flaunted their love life on their Instagram handles, the actress aired her frustrations regarding their relationship. She told Glamour,

“Seriously, you don’t know how often I’m just described as ‘his girlfriend. And you think: ‘Well, I’ve also been acting for 13 years, but don’t worry.'”

In late August, 2016, reports of Lopez’s and Smart’s break up surfaced for the first time. While the duo did not confirm their split, there were plenty of hints on social media about the end of their relationship. While Smart, on his Instagram handle, wrote, “New experiment. Gonna try to live old school for a little while. Going back to a time before social media. Gonna focus on personal connections over a type and text existence”, Lopez, just said, “Protect your heart.”

“If my doctor told me I had only six minutes to live, I wouldn't brood.
I'd type a little faster.” This Isaac Asimov line, embraces my love for writing in the finest and most desperate way that it is and should be! I was tormented by the earnestness of the written word not very early in my journey. But once smitten, it has helped me devour life twice over; savoring the moment and indulging in its memories. As a flâneuse, I wander to understand the intricacies of human relationships. Realizing that, they are just different manifestations of the same feeling of love, has been my greatest learning. I seek to share its opulence through the words I type.
